Lizz Free or Die
Lizz Winstead - Author
- Paperback: $16.00 add to cart
The hilarious and poignant account of how one woman found her comedic voice.
This is a book of essays about life. My life. It's not a memoir, per se, as I decided to write about some speci?c moments that will give you some insight into the people, places, and experiences that propelled me forward. (With a few steps back in the process.) I think of these pieces as "messays," because they are a collection of stories that put my somewhat complicated life into perspective—or at least a kind of perspective.
I have been through a lot of the same stu? that you have dealt with, are dealing with, or will deal with in the future. From the struggle of being a young girl trying to ?nd her voice, to the unlikely places she found it, to the realities and heartbreak of watching an aging parent die, this book gives you (I hope) permission to be honest with yourself, to laugh, to cry, to bitch, and to scream. And maybe if you come across any of those emotions while reading, you will realize that you, too, at some point in your life had been told to "restrain yourself" because you needed to be "appropriate."
I hate the word appropriate.
And I hate people who think they can de?ne appropriateness as an absolute, especially because they are usually the same people who try to shove toeing the line down my throat most aggressively— proselytizing politicians and preachers and prosaic comedy producers, all who specialize in prematurely adjudicating without an appropriate leg of their own to stand on.
I hope this book rede?nes the word appropriate, or shoves it into obsolescence with other meaningless words, like refudiate, jiggy, and Tea Party.
So what kind of juicy details about my life are included? Well, let me be clear up front: First, this is not a book full of dark family secrets.
My father wasn't one of those horri?c memoir dads. You know what I mean. He was not the kind of dad who did "things" to me that led to a social worker, which led to a judge, which led to an attorney asking in a closed hearing, "Where on the doll did he touch you?"
And my mother wasn't one of those memoir moms, either. She was not some kind of emotional gorgon who scrubbed this poor author's secret garden with Borax and Brillo pads or made her children eat their own feces in the crawl space under the basement stairs because her cult leader or the voices in her head told her to. She was more subtle than that.
At this point it should be noted that because these messays aren't chock-full of the aforementioned themes, Lifetime Television won't be clamoring for the TV rights to this book. Although I will share some woman-in-peril anecdotes, my woman-in-peril stories don't involve deadly estrangement, deadly deception, or my mom and me sleeping with our deadly pool boy. So I o?er my sincere apologies right here to the careers of Missy Gold, Tracey Gold, and any other members of the Gold family who will not be employed in some made-for-TV movie incarnation of my life.
Second, I will not regale you with gag-inducing details about spontaneous sex in a Porta-Potty or how I blew some bass player from an indie band in the back of their Leinenkugel-soaked van. This is not to say I don't weave a few tales of sexual stupidity. I did lose my virginity to a mediocre high school hockey player. I grew up in Minnesota; there were a lot of girls like me, who grew up in a wintry archipelago and gave it up to a right-wing left wing with a mullet. It was 1978; there weren't a whole lot of options. Just ask Sarah Palin.
Third, it is not one of those mea culpa books. Those books always make my brain explode because more often than not they are less mea culpa and more everyone else is culpa. Themes like "I heroically sat idly by and watched as the administration I worked for subverted the facts to justify war and ordered torture and illegal imprisonment, but I'll blame everyone who was around me for that."
If you want to read one of those books, put this back on the shelf and walk over to the Your Taxes Used to Pay Me to Do a Crappy Job Running the Country and Now I Am Making Millions Lying to You About How Great I Was at It section. It's right behind the Crafts and Hobbies aisle. Or you might want to check the How to Start Your Home Business area.
And last, it's also not a revenge book. I am not a public laundry kind of gal, unless it's my dog Buddy bar?ng up my thong on a busy Brooklyn street. I do share experiences that some involved may not like, and I have changed some names of people and establishments because either they have private lives that don't need to be dragged through the public mud, even though they happened to be standing in it with me, or I would rather not give free advertising to them, as I think the services they provide suck.
I also feel awful because I could not include all the fantastic people in my life (blame my editor), but as this is not a memoir, I didn't cover every special moment with all those who mean a lot to me so I hope I will be forgiven.
And as for the less fantastic people who have come across my path: I didn't include too many of them for the simple reason that I remember them all too well.
Also, I sometimes lump together chunks of my life to serve as a composite of a given time period, rather than go through a linear play-by-play. I may occasionally have a date or a month wrong, but the experiences all happened within the same general time. Finding speci?c dates from my life way back on the Internet proved very unfruitful. My Wikipedia page is proof of that. So when I had to estimate, I based some of my timelines on the material that went into my shows, knowing I had an accuracy window based on a certain news cycle.
In short, I can say that all this shit happened, but I may be a bit o? in the exact order in which it appears here. It just means I should never be counted on to remember when your birthday is. (Mine is August 5. It is one of the few items on my Wikipedia page I will actually con?rm.)
Having said all of this, these messays are stories from a brain that ?uctuates from fun to fucked up and back, sometimes mid-sentence. They're the adventures of how I evolved from a girl who just wanted to explore her dreams to a woman who came to understand that my dream was ?nding a way to use humor to speak truth to power—and ultimately realized that humor is a most useful tool to help put even the most painful moments of life into perspective.
So if you want to learn some shit about me and have a laugh, quit reading this part and get to the good stu?. The sooner you get started reading about my life, the better you will feel about your own.

Expectations for playoffs?

Injury depleted Pats benefit from weak division - my prediction 10-6 Pats get 3 seed, win in close game at home in wildcard round, then lose at Cincy in divisional round.

As for last 8 games, I think your hard pressed to find anybody who thinks Pats will beat Denver, Balt beat Pats 2 straight, (should be 3 straight), Carolina will be tough game, and Cleveland as well. Even if injury depleted Pats do manage 12-4 there is no way they get past Denver. Pats offense cant score enough.

Even if the above was true this does not follow. I suggest you take a look at the Broncos' depth chart and tell me who is at QB. That should answer your question.

I think 11-5 but would not be surprised with 10-6. What would surprise me is anything better then 11-5.
I'm a realist and I'm sorry, as of right now I don't see a shot at going to the SB let alone winning it. Would I like it, of course. Will I cheer each Sunday for it, of course. Will I be surprised if we don't make it, not at all.

Why not go for the gusto and say they go ALL THE WAY??!!
Everyone and their uncle here say the team is, in spite of the current crop of injuries, improving from where they are now. To my knowledge, there are only 2 players on IR, Wilfork and Mayo, with other injured players coming back as the season progresses with continual improvement from the new kids. It can only get better and, in my mind, that bodes well for the team. There seems to be some folks here who think the Pats just can't get better as the season progresses. I prefer the glass is still half full and getting fuller. Apparently, the missing ingredient to most here is the Pats have yet to look "impressive" this season and, until they do, that is what most of the naysayers here are looking for from this team. IMHO, this is a Pats team similar to what we experienced in the beginning of the SB run, lots of surprises with little expectations. They just kept winning the big games!

Fletch... Did not see anything about Vollmer until today after I posted my comment.
SLGDEV.... you are correct. Just because some predict here the Pats may not defeat the Broncos in the regular season (like some said about defeating the Saints) does not necessarily mean they'll play the Broncos in the playoffs. Some other team could knock the Broncos off and the Pats may not have to face them in the playoffs.

Wonderful Spanish food, but also a great place to just come and drink sangria and maybe order the olives and cheese plate.
Bar Ferdinand might not be the first place you think about for brunch, but it should. Stand outs include the truffled eggs, fried potatoes, and the chorizo.
i use to work here... – I use to work at Bar Ferdinand. I loved it! I loved the food, the energy, the neighborhood, and even the people I worked with, though I do agree with most people that they are rude and snobbish. This was a second, part time job for me, I am a teacher full time. I worked my butt off. As a server there you had to work triple as hard b/c in addition to taking orders and normal server duties, most of the time you had to run your own food (except for weekends), run your drinks, bus your tables, and water tables. Now normally I could manage this. I think most people can. You just have to figure out how to divide your time accordingly. BUT it is a tapas restaurant. There are LOTS of small dishes. NO ONE could keep up with what needed to be done. By the time you ran a drink, you had to take someones order, and another of your tables food came up, but they can't get it until you clear their table of 10 tiny plates and get them new silver. All at the same time, and you just got sat and there are 20 more tiny plates that need to go out to 3 of your tables... Get the idea? The management is horrible, and did not and probably from what it seems, still does not staff the restaurant accordingly. You can't get good service when management is bad and morale is low. I tried my best to do everything as efficiently as possible there. And I was always cheerful and nice to my customers. The restaurant is run inefficiently, and will continue to unless morale there rises, and management realizes the needs of the customers and the staff. The management ultimately was my demise with the restaurant. They do not know how to treat people. I am not an idiot. I work hard all day as a teacher, and I worked that extra job so I can make ends meet. I would not do that job if I were going to be rude to customers, because I needed my customers to love me so I could get a good tips. Why work if you are going to make 10% tips all night?? I now prefer Amada.
Bad service – The food is OK and the service is awful. I have been there twice and would not go back. The waitress was rude. There are other way better tapas restaurants in Philadelphia.
A nightmare to work with – While the food at Bar Ferdinand is quite good, the service is awful. We used them for our holiday party last year and they were a total nightmare. We were afraid that the food wouldn't even arrive. This year, my boss decided we should try them again (who knows why). After leaving multiple messages, I've given up. When I called today, the woman who answered said "he's not in, can I take a message." I explained that I'd left messages all week and I was done. We'd take our business elsewhere. Her response: "um whatever." I have no energy for a place that employs people who don't understand customer service.
I don't know what the person below me is talking about, this is one of the BEST restaurants in the city. My girlfriend and I eat at least one meal here a week and have NEVER been disappointed or unsatisfied with the quality of the food, presentation, or service. I'm glad that the person in the previous post "won't be coming back," it means less of a wait for me and everyone else who loves this place :). Let the haters eat boring overpriced food at a pretentious Stephen Starr joint. Come here for great food, drinks, service and atmosphere, straight up. The brunch is awesome too...
Dirty – I ate at Bar Ferdinand for the first time 2 weekends ago for a going away celebration for a friend of mine. The sangria was good, but there were fruit flies in it!!! We tried the white and the red, and I counted 4 fruit flies in the pitchers. Disgusting. I wonder what the kitchen looks like if the flies are that prolific in the drinks. Also, I had a desert that looked like chocolate cat poopies with sticks stuck into them...upon chewing, I crunched something so hard that it chipped a lil bit of my front tooth. DEFINITELY will never go there again.
Oh, and the waitress apparently thought I was lying. She was rude and unconcerned, and didn't even offer to comp the bill. Just awful customer service. Save your money and go to one of the other 200 GREAT restaurants in Philly.
Anniversay celebration – We went here for an anniversary dinner (11th) and were very pleased with both the service and the meal. We went on a Saturday night, very early (6 p.m.) and found parking right in front. Probably because we were so early, the service was perfect...no worries about the earlier reviews and the scruffy waiters. Our waiter was very knowledgable about the wine choices and the menu.
The place filled up before we left (almost 8 p.m.) but our waiter was right on the mark, and our table was cleared after every entree.
Our faves were the duck confit, the crispy quail salad, and the baked goat cheese (queso de cabra).
Had a glass of rose and a glass of black Spanish beer to start, a bottle of Ole red with dinner, and the special sangria sorbet for dessert.
Great value, EXTREMELY loud – We enjoyed 5 tapas this summer all of which were well prepared and in adequate sizes. They were very good values. Our service was good, very friendly, although our second set of tapas was "forgotten" for 25 minutes. We began by sitting inside which, while being a beautiful interior, consists of only hard surfaces. This made for a very loud atmosphere in which you had to shout to have a conversation. We moved outside where it was much more pleasant.
Great food, great prices – I went here for my birthday and was not at all disappointed with one dish. My friends and I split about ten different dishes and were very impressed. The best was the date, bacon and cream cheese empanadas, with the duck confit being a close second. The service was great and accomodating, even though we had a late reservation we did not feel forced out (a true rarity). On par with Amada, yet half the price, which makes it twice as nice.
RUDE SERVICE, not worth it! – I have been to this restaurant three times, and the last two times the service was beyond poor. Last night my friend explicitly told the staff, and chef that she had a severe dairy allergy. Then immediately after biting into her mussels, she had a strong allergic reaction, and had to be taken to the hospital. (Apparently, to maintain freshness, sometimes seafood is soaked in milk, gross!) The manager never came over to apologize, comp the meal, or offer dessert or drinks. The rest of our order was equally bad--they brought out the wrong food, and forgot other items. At the end, they refused to split the check on several credit cards. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY, THE STAFF IS RUDE, SNOBBY, AND CARELESS. Go to Amada or Tinto for tapas, where the food is infinitely better and they know how to treat their customers. I was so upset after last night's experience, that I created an account on citysearch just to warn other people about this restaurant.
not a great place for tapas – This is not the place for real tapas experts. The cod fishballs were smelly and somewhat freezer burned. The bread for dipping was pretty paltry and the portions were really small even for small plates. As a few other reviewers mentioned, the service wasn't stellar. The value all in all for what you get is low.

Fairly pronounced barrel distortion in the image of the books. Unless this shot is RAW, that would seem to indicate that JPEGs aren't getting corrected for distortion. This is surprising.

Just Posted: Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX1 sample images
Just posted: Sony RX1 real-world sample images - now updated with high ISO samples. We've had the chance to shoot with a near-production RX1 and have started to put together a samples gallery. These are some of the first full resolution independent samples to be taken with an RX1. We've shot a range of subjects, both in good light and in low light at high ISOs. As usual we've included a range af apertures and focus distances too.
Although the camera is considered close-enough to production standard that Sony has allowed us to shoot with it, the company has stressed it is a pre-production unit and may not be entirely representative of final image quality.

These were all shot with distortion correction disabled, the camera's default setting. When we get a production sample for review, we'll do our usual side by side comparison.
Well, Sony has had problems with jpegs forever, but these look good. Anyway, this should be, in RAW, just like the D600, i.e., very good. Price is too high though, for a fixed lens camera w/o a VF.
Has there ever been a set of DPR sample pictures from a single camera where the comments haven't all screamed about how terrible they look, how the camera must be complete garbage then, and how whatever brand the poster subscribes too in much better?
Wow factor: Possibility to record low-light interior shots at high ISO 25600, hand held, from a compact!
Not-so-wow: Price.
Do you think, that the photographer, who pays $2800 wants such child's colouring book as we can see on the original resolution of the high-iso shots with the young girl on the table? There is the problem here: yes, this is digital compact and digital compacts makes such child's colouring book instead of photos. But such compacts have the price $280, not $2800 and has micro sensor, not full frame sensor.
Any camera can produce weird colours if you crank up the ISO to several thousand and use random ambient light as the light source. Also, most users are likely to use RAW.
This is just a quick sample gallery. Photographers who buy the camera will have the time to get to know the camera and use proper light.
Just wondering why the musician and girl on desk were taken at F4 (according to DPReview info) rather than F2 ... ?
Such photos call for wide-open.
Because on FF at f2 DOF at such a close distance would be razor thin which could be a problem. With f4 you'll also get sharper images.
You hit the nail on the head, regarding DOF marike6. Sadly I've got a few really nice shots that I couldn't publish for that very reason:-)
Now let me get this out of the way. You have an f2 lens on a FF camera but aren't willing to shoot it wide open because of the limited DOF?
Try an APS-C or even better m4/3 or best a Nikon1 then.
Shallower DOF from the getgo!
I thought that this sample images gallerie is supposed to show exactly that: a fixed, relatively fast lens on a FF body.
But hey, I could totally be wrong ...
F2 can be used in darker situation... with longer to subject distance. Just because you have an F2 lenses, you don't need to shoot F2 all the time. Hey, other F-numbers are also available.
The single focal lens could be much better than this one is. Nothing sharp at f/2, bokeh is not O.K. and by smaller aperture the edges should be better.
Are you sure it's the problem of the camera and not of the DPR rendering engine? Check the originals instead.
Yes I am sure. In EXIF is Software = "DSC-RX1 ...", these are JPEGs from camera, no dpreview rendering could affect them.
Have a look to Steve Huff samples....
the ones that are all downsized? really dont' tell much really .. even an APS-C camera will look half decent downsized to around 20% of original resolution.
A SIGMA DP2 Merrill do better for far less money. My two cents ..
Keeping in mind that a DP2 Merrill is not for low-light I had high hopes for it after checking out some remarkable SD1 images. But the official samples from Morocco had some weird artifacts like aliasing that I didn't expect to see.
I would not underestimate just how good the Sony sensor in the RX1 is likely to be. I'll also note that HDSLR video shooters will flock to the Sony as early video samples from the RX1 as impressive. For photography, I'd choose either the Fuji XE1 or XP1 over all of these. The X sensor cameras render fine detail extremely well, without looking brittle like the DP2 does at times.
Lol yea ^^ Look at what I do with a DP2 Merrill, hand-held in low light and come back for some extensive learning. I'm not that expensive.
That's what I thought too yet we have to get a production camera and Raw files to be certain.
Not at ISO 25.600 :-)
I am not sure if it really is true but I sense that the color of feveon sensor is less rich than normal sensor
To me it capture lots of detail but don't seem to catch all the subtle tone and shade of color, which to me is more important than detail
Again this is only my impression. May not be real
A Sigma DP2 Merrill do better what? ISO 100/200 in good daylight assuming you have a scene that requires less dynamic range and the color splotches don't get in the way at ISO 200? Any moderate indoor photography situation and the RX1 is doing already way better.
What you do with your Merrill there doesn't seem that low light. You have a bright area of the window. And the shot has hardly anything that puts the Foveon ahead of what an RX1 could do in the same situation. But keep comparing pre-production firmware JPEGs of the RX1 to your Sigma DP2 Merill RAW files and keep telling yourself your DP2M is far better :-)
@Marike6- yes, the Merrill is not for low light. Ever see how those who are fanatical about Foveon almost every single time they show a "low light shot" it's a tripod shot or a non moving subject or not a not-so low light shot? It's interesting.
It's like getting a good shot with a Canon S100 at a sport event and call the Canon S100 a great sports camera capable to outperform a Canon EOS Mark IV.
There is no WOW factor. IQ looks pretty mundane to me. I think the Fuji x100 might do better than this one but then I only guessing at this stage. Another thought - how does this compares with the NEX 6 IQ, I wonder ...
I agree. Fuji is better, for sure. And x100 is much cheaper + EVF + OVF.
Though the photos submitted here were OoC JPEGs, I think I can draw a few conclusions.
1. It doesn't match the Nikon D4 and Canon 1D-X at high ISOs.
2. The lens, though supposedly good, is a limiting factor. I always need zoom!! There are many situations where you simply can't get close, and a zoom must be used. I wish the lens was 35-70mm f/2.0, for x2 zoom. This is really the bare minimum to justify buying a camera with a non-removable lens.
3. I wish it had an articulating LCD, like in the A77 and A99.
4. USB3.0 would have been more adequate in this day and age.
5. The price is a problem. Well, the price is always a problem, but for the RX1, Sony should have aimed for a lower target price.
"It doesn't match the Nikon D4 and Canon 1D-X at high ISOs".
Perhaps it doesn't, but then again you're not camparing like with like.
Too much nonesense is spoken about high ISO comparisons, imho.
Like many, I learnt photography using Kodachrome 25 and Kodachrome 64. These days, shooting in the range of ISO 100 - 400 therefore seems to be high to me, a luxury in comparison. Just about anything can be shot in that range.
So, photographers who purport to use ISOs of 3,200 or 6,400 or even higher because they need to, well, are they really photographers? Or do they simply use high ISO comparisons as a means of justifying their own equipment choice, wanting to believe it's better and at the same time demean others' equipment?
I find it interesting that so many people say that they grew up on ISO 25, etc so we should be happy with ISO 400. In the early days of photography, people had to sit for 30 second exposures in broad daylight. I suppose those early photographers chided the younger ones for not being satisfied with their five second "miracle" exposures.
Camera tech has come a long way in the last few years, but it seems to me that the ultimate goal would be to have a camera capable of capturing the image you see without the need of bulky accessories. Having to use a tripod is like having a laptop that needs to be plugged in to operate. It's been so in the past, but it isn't the ideal.
Most household lighting is low enough to require ISO 800 (with a fast lens). When cameras can capture clean images at lighting levels people like to hang around in, then ISO will no longer be such a debated factor. With that goal just around the corner, people are expecting each camera to deliver on the promise.
The megapixel race is a good example. Back in the day, people were constantly wanting more (and then complaining when the counts got "too high"). But the technology is almost mature, and an equilibrium is nearly achieved. MP count is no longer THE factor in a camera. Consumers and manufacturers have moved on to the next area for improvement: High ISO. In a few years, they'll move on to something else (battery life? touchscreen interfaces? Wi-fi?). All with the goal of making the camera the most natural extension of our eyes and minds as possible.
If I had a penny for every post that started with "when I learned photography...." I would be a millionaire.
I'm 52 and worked with film for 25 years. I also learned to write scientific software in assembler on computers with 16K of RAM, so by your logic I must have written very good software.
Not so. Those restrictions may have made me a good *programmer*, but the software was painfully crude and limited. Each 10X increase in RAM allowed a huge leap forward in the sophistication of software, but even when Gates said "640k was enough" in 1981, it was already inadequate by 1985, just as 2GB was inadequate by 2005.
Even in 1990, film was painfully restrictive in many circumstances where humans could still see perfectly well. Whole aspects of real life experience were avoided or reduced to grainy low quality. These aspects are now completely accessible. I see that as "a good thing".
If you don't understand that, are you really a photographer?
Well said RichardAB.
There is a limitation to low noise performance called *temperature* which will ultimately limit the SNR of a sensor.
The low ISO ranges will always eield superior images for a given technology.
You were lucky. I was using 'computers' with '1008 programmable steps' - 1 K memory way back when.
thing is that the programs worked perfectly in a time frame that was more than acceptable.
yes, I could use a new generation software package with add-ons that would be 100 MB (if I'm lucky) and look prettier but have no realistic advantage over the old basic 1K program.
It's called 'bloat ware'.
Comes down to 'needs and wants'.
Seems to me that all the "photographers" who need to shoot black cats running around in deep caves and are desperate for a 1000000 ISO camera will, once it's available, just be complaining about the cat being too slow.
@Anthony John
Please write a photo editor in 1008 program steps.
Very interesting images of the fire escape stairs on the side of the building.
The shadows and highlights were handled well.
It looks like it has been through an HDR process, which of course were not, the shadows showing texture instead of dark areas. The sensor technology used is outstanding.
We all were desperate for sample shots, true? Now here is the earliest possible series of them - a basic and trivial one, indeed. Thank you dpreview, carry on, and can we have a detailled review one day, please?
I really don't see much difference between this and a good APS-C camera
if one is not after very shallow DOF, no reason to go full frame
The advantage in low light can be obtain by a fast lens in APS-C
maybe there is some dynamic advantage but that is not obvious unless by side by side comparison testing
As sample pictures come, these were the most fun and interesting I've seen in a while. Nice job Amadou!
Oh! There's one of an old San Fran F streetcar -- looks exactly the same as when I was a kid in the '50s... except for a little handicapped-access sticker. Progress!
I'm no photo expert, but tell me -- how can you offer an opinion on image quality when you are looking at them in JPG format on a computer screen? Don't you have to actually print the image -- on a decent printer -- to get true idea of the original image quality?
That depends on your (end) usage. I for example have to deliver my images by internet to my client (media&news agency) they are judging the images always from screen (JPEG) even they are used for paper based printing.
print an image is so '50s :) Nowday, you post on facebook, flickr, picasa, send by mail, upload on the cloud. And few people have high-end calibrated screen. So the sample are good enough for web viewing. But at 100%, the mermaid on the desk show not so good high iso, even at 200iso, of course, at smaller size, it's good enough. Either 24mpx is too much pixel count, even for FF or Sony jpeg engine is bad.
sample images are disappointing, hope the RX1 can do better !!
I do like the samples, the boke looks very pleasing and the color, contrast and sharpness looks good too.
The question is however, why would I buy this camera. It seems (if I have to believe the friendly Sony chap at Photokina) to be aimed at professional photographers, needing a smaller/more compact body but with the quality of a DSLR.
Image quality is hardly a point anymore (except for 5% of the pixel turds), quality is already uber good for the past 5 years. functionality is what counts, especially for professional photographers and the functionality of a DSLR aimed at professional usage cannot be found in a compact (yet) not in any, so also not this one. Marketing and price do not change anything to that.
So Sony marketing may tell me that it is aimed at professional photographers, I say it's aimed at a small niche market and it is a niche product.
A painting's art is not in how fine the brush strokes are.
I get that the realism of a picture can invoke greater emotional response but in the end the image is more than pixels. It's a great time in the camera world where we $&@% and moan over the last 5% of image quality and spend thousands to get there. Spend away! Buy cheaper cameras too but please take good pics and share them. I wish you all great luck with the sport of moment and image capture. Admit it. We are all just gear geeks looking for the next toy. I think I will read a book to help me take better pics than spend a few thousand on something that won't.
Well said!
Books don't help you to take better pictures, open your eyes.
They do, rage Joe. The eye needs training too. Michael Freeman's "The Photographer's Eye" helped me improve my pictures dramatically. It made me aware of things I simply had no notion - and I don't mean technical matters.
Like some say, it's not the depth of field that matters, it's the depth of feelings in a picture that matters
I can learn a lot from the pros reading their books. When I am that damn good where the last 5% of image quality matters I will spend the thousands and thousands at that time. By that time I can pick this up on EBay for $200 and laugh my ass off at my own inside joke.
@ManuelVilardeMacedo - excellent book, so is his 'Perfect Exposure'. I agree, books are excellent source and do help us improve our skills. Yes, we must have an eye but there's also skill involved.
To me, images from the DP2merrill were more stunning. With the partnership in effect, think Sony should quickly harness Olympus JPEG engine and apply it to their cameras.
I thought so too. Much cheaper to boot.
Surely DP2merrill is a lot sharper than any Bayer sensor camera (except for D800 when normalized to DP2 resolution). However, Sigmas are dreadful at any sensitivities above ISO 200.
Olympus JPG engine? Have you tried the Fuji X-Pro 1 JPG engine? I want the Fuji Engine in my Canon FF DSLR's, too! :)
Which DP2 Merrill Samples? The Morocco ones from Sigma's website. I was actually thinking of buying a DP2 UNTIL I saw those samples with the aliasing.
I agree with smatty re: X-Pro1 JPEG engine. Really first rate. Olympus JPEGS may have been decent way back when, but with the EM-5 they are only average.
I'm not familiar with x-pro 1 jpegs but the older fuji's jpegs especially those with super CCD tend to have some weird patterns in out of focus or dark areas which i didn't really like. But when it comes to colours, i must say Fuji pretty much rules. Of course all these are personal preferences like there'll be people who'll hate how sharp the DP2 merrill looks.
Aliasing, problems with large bright neutral surfaces, and poor medium & high ISO performance keeps me from getting the DP2. Also, a Bayer matrix sensor with about 1.7 x the native pixel count of a Foveon type sensor should give the same resolution and sharpness.
You may ask yourself why Sigma does not sell very many cameras.
If the DP2 Merrill was a similar camera it might make sense to compare it, but the two cameras are so far apart in terms of overall functionality and handling it just doesn't make sense.
Good lens as long as these shots are concerned, but nothing spectacular.
Why is there a subtle NR engaged at ISO100? Is it possible to switch it off and make less flat shots with a less plastic feel to the fine/low-contrast detail?
I had in my mind to write the exact same thing. About plastic feel, oise reduction but mainly the loss (or the feel of loss) of microcontrast
Sooner or later someone else here will have the bright idea of checking pics from different cameras side by side. Then the astonishing truth becomes apparent - there aint hardly any difference between these products. Especially at base ISO in bright sunlight.
Sorry you had to hear that from an amateur and one who has used the same digital camera for 5 years and honestly can't get his friends with their regularly upgraded super duper stuff to show him the difference pictorially.
1. I don't take pictures "in bright sunlight"
2. There is HUGE difference in shadows detail and ISO performance in different cameras.
3. You need to see an eye doctor if you can't see any difference between modern cameras
4. Get a decent screen (no TN panels please, those are junk)
@2 - you need to be one of these poor pixel-peepers that you see a HUGE differences.
Hugo808 is spot on. Of course, just like a wine connoisseur's trained palatte can discern differences between wines which would be lost on the majority, so the trained eye can see differences in the technical qualities of photographs at pixel level which are of no consequence to the enjoyment the rest of us gain from the picture at a normal viewing distance.
Plastek: are you suggesting that you cannot see the difference between a compact camera and a full-frame sensor at, say, ISO 3200? If that's the case, and assuming you have your corrective eyewear sorted out, I suggest a brain MRI scan at the earliest.
@misolo: I believe Plastek and Hugo808 are referring to cameras in similar class. Now, we even have relatively compact cameras with large sensors (e.g. Fujifilm and Canon G1X), and the performance difference between APS-C and FF sensors is only ~ 1 stop.
The trouble is that the "bright sunlight" is not the ideal condition for taking beautiful pictures... and even in these conditions the dynamic range may make a difference - although you won't notice it, it may influence the impression you get from the photo (and will allow some more freedom in post process of-course).
Surely the $3000 camera won't turn a bad photographer into a good one. It's just a tool.
It's a DOF thing. FF images look different because they don't have DOF compromised like the crop sensor cameras.
Exactly my feelings. I take a picture at 100 iso of the same spot in my garden with every camera that comes into this house. The results have been disquieting. Some cheap tiny cameras take better pictures than Sony Nex. Why 100 iso? Because I hardly need to use anything else, even in dark buildings (steady hand, good stabilization...). And yes, I agree the dark areas come out better with bigger sensors.
Now ISO 100 might work for you while taking shots of still subjects, but please do try that ISO 100 inside a dark building while shooting anything that moves or walks around.
Please, come back after the test and share your results with us. I just can't wait to see how that ISO 100 from a cheap cam with your "steady hand" came out.
Of course any camera can make a reasonably good image under ideal lighting (for the sensor not photography) like bright sun light. You don't pay for the latest/best gear to for what it does when you have ideal conditions, you pay for them for how they preform when the going gets tough.
Plus there are other things like ergonomics, size, control layout and build quality that factor in to what camera you should buy as well. It is not a simple as comparing a few shots taken under ideal conditions and declaring there is no differnce in the pictures.
Just another home run for Sony's innovation mill. While I'm not of the list of potential buyers of an RX1 I can't wait to see the first FF MILC out there, there is just no way around it.
Who'll come first ? Will Sony take the plunge ? However, Leitz would be well advised to focus on what they do best - lenses.
This or that way, golden times ahead - techwise.
I will get this camera and keep it in my Porsches glove box.
and then once you've done all that, you open the good old book with grammar and will learn to use apostrophes in appropriate places (foreigner here)
But disregard capitalization and full stops, they're not so important.
@hc44 - you deserve 'like' for your comment, made my day :)
sample images.
Not really impressed with them.
Yes sharp, but kind of flat.
Need to see an artist use this camera.
Well I think that images lack of sharpness and I think that there is a problem in magentas...
Flatness means DR is great.
We need to buy more cameras like this.
Innovative efforts should be rewarded.
This camera is brilliant in concept.
However, with a list price of US$2800, this camera is dead in the water even before it's released. Sony needs to look over their shoulder and see what their competitors offer: Nikon D600 and Canon 6D both cost much less even with an entry level lens thrown in. Sure, their competitors' cameras are bigger, but price is always the sticky point.
Dead in the water? Do you know how much its pre order already in China markets?
Its really not for you, go back to your canikon please...
$2800 for a fixed lens pocket camera is insane.
"Sony needs to look over their shoulder and see what their competitors offer"
Canikon don't offer compact FF. No one does.
Oppss.. Leica does, and the price of RX-1 is relatively cheap.
I love the detail and skin tone of the camera but if you look closely to the shadow area you can see lots of wired unevenness (splotch) which is really a surprise to me as those shots were shot at ISO 100. As a FF camera with such a high end lens should produce very smooth graduation in the shadow area.
I noticed this too. I suspect this is something they'll iron out in the final push before it hits shelves.
right. the shadows look like it came from a small sensor. they must have tweaked this camera to do better at higher ISOs and not ISO100, which I dislike. no wonder, a poster said below that camera IQ remains almost the same throughout the years probably due to MP race.
edit that. i will have to wait for the RAW files, it could be a little better.
completely agree
"right. the shadows look like it came from a small sensor." - definitely you seen different shots then these posted here.
nah, i'm sure by it. pretty sure they would fix it through NR.
This is my vote for the most interesting camera of 2012.
I'd look at it as being more of a test prototype that is being sold to consumers. The ones that really want it.
Instead of having a 23mm lens on it, it has a 35mm lens on it, which gives it the option of DOF control.
But it's just so amazing to see the thing in people's hands. It's "tiny", for a FF digital camera.
Sony will eventually sell the sensor to other companies. They'll make money that way too. This camera shows just how small the camera can be. Great marketing tool for the sensor.
+1 from me too ... if it was no sony .., but still its good that some company starts to build cameras like that one.
They're already selling the sensor, it's found in the D600.
I wonder how long before the usual two suspects say the G15 is better? Okay..I am kidding (I think).
Have to admit I am wondering about the Fuji X-E 1 with the 35 1.4 as a conbo vs the RX1. Just how much of a difference will there be?
Thanks for these samples DPR.
Since the X-E1 is an apsc, the real comparison would be with the 23mm 1.4 lens Fuji's releasing next year.
Not sure why the sample shots are soft - I was able to try an RX1 as well and it was ridiculously sharp.
On top of the low light shot how about some that shows close range distortion (or the correction of it), and some that shows the bokeh?
please get rid of the AA filter... this was my dream camera all along, I also wished for a built in digital viewfinder, but its ok i can live with this.. but please let go of the AA filter
Please don't listen to this person. There's already more than enough resolution to make the AA filter irrelevant; and the advantage of an AA filter is overwhelming.
fully agree. the concept of the aa filter is just mind boggling. id much rather have moire sometimes than mushiness everytime. and its not just about resolution. the aa filter also affects color since it makes the individual bayer pixels overlap. just get rid of it already.
since owing a sigma ive made a personal vouch of not buying any aa filtered cameras anymore. you really cant beat a sigma outdoors, and if they werent so bad indoors i wouldnt need anything else. their lenses are also much better than people give them credit for. anyway, the pentax k5iis and xpro1 are the next on my shopping list... wish the gh3 or the upcoming gx2 also had a filterless version... m43 cameras are great for casual happy snapping and for when you cant be bothered to think about all the camera's quirks in order to get a quick-but-still-good shot
wow, images in full colour!, and under beautiful sun light! incredible
send the camera to me, see what I can do with it.
Looks like a bunch of uninstresting snapshots in bright sunshine. Seems like almost any camera could make these images.
Not sure what you were expecting, here..?
I'm sure you know that it's not the camera that makes the shot interesting, so I won't jam that down your throat. But really, the DPR guys are probably busy people. They can't spend a week with the RX1 trying to get super artistic and high concept shots just to curate a small online gallery. All they need are basic shots for demonstration's sake. These foot the bill just fine.
(That said, just because the RX1 is capable of capturing reality just are finely as other cameras, doesn't mean a person interested in the RX1 should just go out and buy the standard-issue Canon or Nikon, anyway. It's all up to individual preference of the little things that matter to them.)
The Fuji XE-1 + the upcoming 23mm f/1.4 lens should match or exceed the image quality of the RX-1 for half the money.
Ya with an EVF and interchangeable lenses no contest for me.
apsc vs ff
no contest at all
f2.0 ain't exactly the fastest lens ever made. APS-C with fast glass (f1.4) will have the same amount of light. The Fuji sensor has proven to do more with less so I think with equal light it should beat out it's larger sensor competition with it's fixed f2.0 lens. And the 2mp EVF is included in the cost ;)
ff? The AA filter killed it. My XPro1 produces more details than the RX1 samples.
No. At first, f2 lenses are (much) easier to design and build than f1.4 to achieve the same level of abberations. At the second it's FF vs APS-C, so your fuji 23/1.4 needs to have 1.53 times more resolution and sharpness to achieve the same details, but this is highly unlikely because, again, the f2 lens is easier to desisgn + longer focal lengths (35 > 23) are easier to achieve higher resolution figures and local contrast. And, again, with FF sensor you will still get better details than APS-C even with X-Trans and will get MUCH better colors (what were traded for high iso resolution in fuji camera):
And here they are .. the Fuji Fanboys.
I am not really a true Fuji Fanboy, just a little bit, but just compare the high iso pictures taken with a X-Pro1 to any camera you want. Looks like it has less noise than even a Nikon D4 at moderate high iso settings.
The Fuji X-pro image at 100% crop has a weird look; water colour painting. Even if you resample the effect is visible. It also has less colour resolution. It's not a clear winner.
@Rage Joe:
Take a look at here (D600 with little chroma denoise downsampled to 16Mp vs Fuji XPro-1, both ISO6400).
D600 has less noise (in general, they have different noise character), more details, MUCH better colors.
Pretty good pics. Just bit lacking "character". Tho it does look like ZA lens, so its probably pretty close to putting 24-70mm ZA on A99 and zooming to that 35mm.
JPEGs look good, unusually good for Sony (almost Minolta level, just without colors).
I think buyers wont be disappointed with image quality. If this is near production sample, then its very good.
I downed some of the shots to see in full size and, I must say, there are really for 1500$ more picture in that shots than in those of a NEX-7. Only problem is, I have not found out yet where. I still would say this, buy a NEX-7 and a 6, and by a 35-1.5 lens with it and for the resting money, you drink a couple of beers.
Honestly, I find most cameras this days produce more or less the same image quality. The glass makes the art not the chip or sensor.
It's amazing how much money and time we spend on comparing nonsense.
I'm guilty of some of what you mention but I completely agree with you. Many people split hairs, pixel peep, and get hot and bothered over nonsense. How much better do we really need these cameras to be? The average person viewing our images will not care which camera or lens was used. What our ISO was. What shooting mode we shot in. All this is irrelevant to the average viewer.
Camera technique, lens, subject, composition, developing / processing; all matter more than the camera imo.
And speaking of sharpness, MANY great images, classic or modern, are not always technically perfect to begin with. You can use a recent state of the art camera, or a digital camera from 5+ years ago and still be able to create award winning shots. A great photographer can create great images with any camera.
For most people, cameras today with a similar number of megapixels do produce more or less the same image quality in good light
But the images from a full frame sensor will always blow away images from an APS-C or smaller sensor at 1600,3200,6400 ISO.
Also, newer cameras tend to have improved electronics that provide faster and more accurate autofocus, faster frames per second and larger buffers.
This can mean getting or losing the "shot" with active subjects.
Oh, and don't forget that newer cameras with similar or improved specs to older ones are getting smaller/lighter, which is always appreciated when walking around all day with camera around your neck.
After shooting the RX-100, I believe the RX-1 will live up to the hype!
Mostly it's about the lens, and for the most part, it always has been.
I shoot birds and you would be surprised the people who buy the newest cameras pushed at them. Then tell me they do not have the cash for a quality lens? Amazing the hyp people believe.
glass doesnt make art^^
to make a camera a real camera it has to be fullframe, so this camera by the fact that its ff alone, rules out nearly every other camera. for me of course, and iam not shooting birds ^^
the lens is a zeiss prime, so do not think its too bad :)
i think most cameras in their class produce nearly the same picture, but there is still a huge difference between mFT for example and any ff camera.
of course a lot of the fullframe hype is made by companies, but also by a lot of people that where used to the style of ff pictures. and for those people (me), digital photography sucked until companies came out with ff sensors.
so for me personally its a cool camera, but i wont buy it because its a sony.
Maybe the Medium format or large format users will think FF users are just playing with toys.
"to make a camera a real camera it has to be fullframe" - Oh no, this BS once again.
How about you go and shot a little bit with large format instead of talking crap? They you'll see that FF is much closer to APS-C then anything else, and APS-C cameras are of equal value to FF, only enjoy the "sweet spot" of the lens instead of vignetting/lack of sharpness at the edges typical for FF.
I have been using film camera and a 6x6 Rollei and in recent now using a 7D after using a 40D. I worked with a FF (mark II) and found that yes, you may have some low light advantages but to to say FF is the "real" thing is nonsense. I use my 7D for commercial work and can't find any reason to go FF.
Nonetheless I am sure APS-C will become redundant in the near future or will be fitted mostly into P&P.
"to make a camera a real camera it has to be fullframe"
To make a camera real all you need is a little box with a hole in it.
I didnt spect to see any fringing from a fixed non-zoom lens camera this expensive, but there it is... also i gree that there could be daylight shots above ISO 100... i dont know, maybe trying to freeze a bird in flight, maybe inside some building... get creative!.
Thanks for the pics, obviously you are at the Sony Media Show in San Fran. Great shots, can't wait to see your low light shots and raw pics. Glad I pre ordered. Hope to have the camera before Xmas.
mediocre at best as far as output but i like the body style and build. originals look better though or maybe i need my head examined. id wait for final product. would probably buy one if i were rich.
Clown. Who gives a crap about how it looks? I bet you own an iPhone.
lol, stop fooling yourself.
You're not going to buy this, ever.
I'm not saying you can't afford it.
Looks great, although proof will be in the wide open and low light pudding but no doubt it will deliver.
If you love 35mm, looks like a great tool.
Anyone who pays this kind of money for this needs their head examined. PERIOD.
Its a bargain compared to an M9 and Summicron!
I wonder what you drive, a rattling tin rust bucket? If you do thats your choice and who can afford something better its their choice, but to say others that don't have your mind set needing to have their heads examined, well that says much about yourself.
If this is not a camera for you, fine. But to say anyone that buys this camera needs their head examined is a very immature, and uneducated comment to make imo.
While this might not be a great option for you at this price point, others will find it a great value for what they want this camera for.
Full frame sensors are not cheap. Top quality glass is not cheap.
Do you automatically think this camera should be less money due to it's compact size? When has that ever been the case? Quality = $$$. Just be thankful this camera wasn't created by Leica or it would be at least 50% more expensive.
People need to understand what this camera is about and who the intended user is for. Then they'll realize there aren't many camera options with "similar features and quality" of the RX1. In fact, Sony created a new camera category.
B-Rad, I guess you want something for nothing.
That is the current cost of FF technology. Too expensive for you? Don't buy and don't write nonsense here!
If you want M9 and Sumicron output but could live with sluggish performance the new DP 1 and 2 Merrill might be an even better deal while beating this camera in output. Read the reviews.
FF technology is exactly the same as APSC technology, only the lens development and production is more expensive. There is only one reason why FF bodies are more expensive to buy, and that is to protect the APSC market.This camera is worth any cent, the way it is built, but, it just does not fits anyone, by specifications and by equipment. Add an OVF, a fast curtain shutter, make it a quarter inch thicker, and you are on the right side of the tracks. There are many people who like fixed lens cameras, for sure a ILS would be better for most. One can not judge people by what you or me would buy or not. If it is on the market, it is to be sold, and many will buy it. Now, analyzing what kind of people buy it, is another discussion, but I doubt that any of them have brain damage as claimed here. That statement is stupid anyway.
No. FF sensor is about 20 times more expensive then APS-C one. Because it is too large for a standard semiconductor manufacturing equipment.
B-rad is 100% on the ball. What a bunch of limp-wristed wannabe's.
I would rather buy the RX100, DP Merrill 1 an 2 for that money.
RX 100 In pocket, DPM 2 in hand and DPM 1 around neck.
And what would you do in low light?
Low light? 2.8 too slow? Ok, Fujifilm X100 with wide teleconverter and DP 2 Merrill. DP 2 Merrill for non action shots where you can take your time and Fuji x100 with teleconverter for everything else for the same price.
No any teleconverter for X100.
Sorry... Fuji X100 can't focus in low light and the RX1 with twice the sensor size is going to have less noise in low light.
I think it's cool but for that money I would get something different. I think it's about $1,000 over priced. I like that it can do Macro and the video seems great but I think the cost leaves other options more desirable.
New budget FF cameras cost $ 2100 without any lens. Why RX1 with excellent lens should be even cheaper?
@Noirist - is your camera broken??? My X100 focuses just fine in low light and those are conditions where 70% of my photos are taken and I usually shoot at ISO3200 ;)
My X100 focuses in low light as well!
Nice lens and bokeh. You can't have isolating bokeh like that of a longer FL lens, but it is nice to have some bokeh in a small camera none the less.
Looks like Sony went soft with the jpegs to help hide moire issues.
i must have missed something, but of the images i just saw, not a single one showed something bokeh'ish
Richard - could you folks report on (and shoot some sample images of course) the utility of the 1.4X "smart teleconverter"? The idea of having a virtual APS-C camera with a 50mm lens goes along way, if it works well, to making this an ideal carry-everywhere high IQ camera for me... and probably for many others.
I'm quite ok with 35mm on 35 only; but virtual 50 if the remaining resolution is sufficient certainly sweetens the deal.
Thanks for putting these first images up so quickly!
Well, I like the RX1 but this set really isn't all that great. Still, for the conditions and settings used, it's really hard to form a fair conclusion.
Not bad for firmware version 0.01!
So these were straight out of camera jpgs? Needs to be added some sharpening. Can't wait to see what will be achieved shooting raw and some post processing. Bokeh looks pretty smooth and calm too. Going to be one great camera.
Yes - straight out-of-camera JPEGs.
Thumbs down about:
3.no WOW factor
all samples at ISO 100
Yes. These are good light samples. Low light samples to follow.

DARIUS and HYDRON have trademarks recently filed.
Take a look at my attempts at coloring
and if you get the chance
Check out my Deviant Art Gallery
Who is Darius?
Hydron was my favorite NA figure back in the day...glad to see that it looks like he will be one of the next NA figures. Darius also seems like a good choice. I really wish they could do Mara though.
Good stuff-I'd love for either of these to be the next NA figure. I'm jonesin' for more New Adventures love in Classics.
Not to sound like a creepy cheerleader for Uki, but it's nice to know there is at least one person on this forum who is extremely positive & friendly all the time. I don't think I could be that nice even if you paid me. If we ever give out awards for "forum member of the month", Uki gets my vote. -Mr. Shokoti
Way to Go Club Etheria!
I guessed that Darius was going to be the NA figure they released next (fits with the penchant TG has for prototypes or list ideas - which I LOVE!!).
I bet Hydron is TM'd for Darius's bio.
How much does anyone want up bet that Darius ends up being a Cosmic Warrior??
Oh, and Castaspella is having a party. Darius is invited, and so is Glimmer. Sweet Bee might drop by with Snout Spout. Everyone hopes that Slush Head won't crash the party.
A Want List of Sorts: Eldor, Imp, Filmation Hordak, Sweet Bee, Arrow, NA She-Ra, Spinnerella, Mermista, Gwildor, Tung Lasher, Ninjor, Lizard Man, Dragstor, Huntara, ... and all the other POP & NA characters.
Also, it's now obvious either NA He-Man, Darius or Hydron will be the next NA figure based on copyrights. I hope it's Darius or Hydron though. I can wait for NA He-Man. We've got a lot of He-Man in the line so far.
Off topic: That's Will Smith's daughter?! That song is terrible and everything in the video is inappropriate for a child.
